Endless Adventure - Chapter 104
From the looks of it those ȧssassins were hired by Densetsu. If they were the real deal they would’ve already been dead. He most likely hired them to test out Pouf. I looked at Pouf and waited for his reaction. He took our orders and after that he went towards the kitchen.
After twenty or so minutes he came out of the Kitchen with our orders. I looked towards the ȧssassins to see that they were slowly surrounding our table. The first one to act was the shortest of the ȧssassins. He pretended to fall on Pouf. Shaiapouf was holding our orders so his hands were busy. He was full of openings and when the ȧssassin pretended to fall on him I saw some silver light coming from his clothing. He most likely had a knife in his clothing and when he fell on Pouf he would silently kill him.
When ȧssassin fell on him he wasn’t moved from his place. He continued to serve the dishes to our table. The ȧssassin on the other hand was lying on the floor. There was a small hole in his ċhėst where the heart should be. I looked towards the other ȧssassins and saw that none of them were around. I was quite impressed by his speed. I looked at the first victim and saw that his body was nowhere to see. I looked at other ones and they too disappeared.He was a long limb tribe member. His double jointed long arms gave his attacks more power and range. His double jointed long legs gave him more speed.
A year ago when I met him I used “ULTIMATE” on him and upgraded his race. That time he already had a good grasp of the Rokushiki techniques and had awakened observation haki. After he became arc-longlimb I never checked how powerful he was.
You may ask how does the civilian know of Rokushiki techniques?
Before answering the question I would compliment you because you’re a truly good reader. In this era Rokushiki techniques are widely spread. They are like high school calculus classes . You don’t need them for your future as you wouldn’t normally use it in everyday scenarios. But you have to learn them in high school they’re are mandatory. The same is for the Rokushiki techniques. They are public property meaning anyone can use them and parents would teach their children those techniques. Because the First Void King was a mercenary a strength is deeply respected in the kingdom. And even if you’re not gonna be a warrior in the future you still have to know few Rokushiki techniques to even be considered an ȧduŀt.
After eating the food now I have to find a way to get rid of Densetsu because the real delicacy is waiting to be consumed. I looked at Densetsu and said, “Those people you hired were they part of the army?”
Densetsu shook his head and said, “No they were hired ȧssassins from the underground! But before hiring them I looked deep into their records and they were quite good at their job!”
I looked at him shocked and asked, “How did you have so much time to review them! You were informed of the test today! If they were from army I could understand how you found the right people and gave them an order! Now you’re telling me that you hired them, gave them their pays, review their records and that in less than an hour after you were informed of the test?”
This is some high level bullshit here.
Densetsu smiled and said, “You may not know this but I have some influence in the underworld. I have many fodder ȧssassins working for me and the Royal Family!”
I looked at him with a disdain and said, “Go and bury the bodies with your own hands. You take the human life too carelessly. You not only represent yourself when you walk around the streets you also represent our country. What others would think if the face of our country is represented by a ruthless person who doesn’t respect the life of others!”
He kneeled and said, “I will follow your orders!” Pouf came near and told Densetsu where he left the bodies. Densetsu disappeared and using En I tried sensing him around. After coming to this world I could use Nen techniques which is really useful. He was nowhere around the area. After checking that I started to follow Pouf as he went towards the basement of the restaurant.
When we arrived at the basement Pouf opened a secret room and I followed him. The secret room was a freezer and inside it there were bodies of Fishmen/Merfolk. Pouf smiled and said, “Your highness you’re truly hypocritical. You reprimanded that person how he was unsightly to be serving you when you yourself aren’t a saint!”
I looked at the bodies and said, “I really don’t care! Morals and ethics are only useful as excuses. The only thing that matters is strength. If I wasn’t the prince and the future king do you think he would’ve listened to me. He most likely would’ve killed me if I didn’t have a strong background!” After saying that I started to eating the bodies. After eating two or three I could already transform into a Fishman but I had to eat more to evolve the race. After eating twenty or so corpses I fully understood every part for the Fishman body evolving the race.
Before this I could evolve Pouf because long limb humans are the same as humans but they have extra joints. It was easy to evolve him as I already had profound idea about the race.
I transformed myself into Arc-Fishman to try out the new body. After the transformation I got shorter but my physical power was astounding. Normal Fishman was ten times stronger than normal humans but in Arc-Fishman form I was twenty time stronger than in my arc-human. And I wasn’t even in water if I was in water I would’ve become far stronger. In my fishman form I looked like a handsome humanoid shark(Imagine Arlong but far young and handsome version). I could also transform into a Merman but I’ll do it next time. It’s time to go and meet my other subjects.
